Advanced Wi-Fi Settings
Selectable from 802.11b/g/n for 2.4G Wi-Fi network, and select 802.11a/n/an/ac for 5.8G Wi-Fi network.
Channel Bandwidth:
This controls channel bandwidth of Wi-Fi network. Select 20/40MHz for 2.4G Wi-Fi, and choose from 20/40/80MHz for the 5.8G network.
Channel Mode:
Total 3 different standards, FCC, ETSI, and JP. The default value is ETSI. Choose the related channel mode standard depends on your location.
Channel:
The WiFi channel corresponds to a frequency the router uses to communicate with other devices. Select a channel from the dropdown list.
Transmit Power:
The default wireless transmitter operates at 100% power. Sometimes you might need to isolate specific frequencies to a smaller area. By reducing the power of the radio, you can prevent transmissions from reaching beyond the defined wireless area.
DTIM Period:
A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the wireless router has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Wireless clients detect the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 1. Valid settings are between 1 and 255.
Beacons are packets sent by a wireless router to synchronize wireless devices. Specify a Beacon Period value between 20 and 1000 milliseconds.
RTS Threshold:
When an excessive number of wireless packet collisions are occurring, wireless performance can be improved by using the RTS/CTS (Request to Send/Clear to Send) handshake protocol. The wireless transmitter will begin to send RTS frames (and wait for CTS) when data frame size in bytes is greater than the RTS Threshold. This setting should remain at its default value.
Tx Preamble:
Enable the Tx Preamble to start the error checking utility that helps with the wireless data transmission.
